LaTeX Workshop is an extension for [Visual Studio Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/), aiming to provide core features for LaTeX typesetting with Visual Studio Code.

This project won't be successful without contributions from the community, especially from the current and past key contributors:

- Jerome Lelong [`@jlelong`](https://github.com/jlelong)

- Takashi Tamura [`@tamuratak`](https://github.com/tamuratak)

- Tecosaur [`@tecosaur`](https://github.com/tecosaur)

- James Booth [`@jabooth`](https://github.com/jabooth)

Thank you so much!

**Note that the latest version of LaTeX-Workshop requires at least VSCode `1.74.0`.**

## Features (Taster)

This is not a complete list but rather a preview of some of the coolest features.

- Build LaTeX (including BibTeX) to PDF automatically on save.

  

- View PDF on-the-fly (in VS Code or browser).

  

- Direct and reverse SyncTeX. Click to jump between location in `.tex` source and PDF and vice versa.

  

- Intellisense, including completions for bibliography keys (`\cite{}`) and labels (`\ref{}`).

  

- LaTeX log parser, with errors and warnings in LaTeX build automatically reported in VS Code.

  

  - Linting

  

- [Snippets](https://github.com/James-Yu/LaTeX-Workshop/wiki/Snippets)

  - A lot of LaTeX commands can be typed using snippets starting in `\`, then type part of the command to narrow the search.

    

  - Surround some selected text with a LaTeX command using ctrl+l, ctrl+w (⌘+l, ⌘+w on Mac). A new menu pops up to select the command. This works with multi selections. The former approach using `\` has been deprecated.

    

  - We also provide a few other suggestion mechanisms

    - Greek letters are obtained as `@` + `letter`. Some letters have variants, which are available as `@v` + `letter`. See [here](https://github.com/James-Yu/LaTeX-Workshop/wiki/Intellisense#inserting-greek-letters).

        

    - Common environments can be obtained by `BXY` where `XY` are the first two letters of the environment name, eg. `BEQ` gives the `equation` environment. If you want the star version of the environment, use `BSXX`, eg. `BSEQ` gives the `equation*` environment. See [here](https://github.com/James-Yu/LaTeX-Workshop/wiki/Intellisense#Handy-mathematical-helpers).

        

    - Common font commands can be obtained by `FXY` where `XY` are the last two letters of the font command name, eg. `FIT` gives `\textit{}`. See [here](https://github.com/James-Yu/LaTeX-Workshop/wiki/Snippets#font-commands-and-snippets).

        

    - Many other maths symbols can be obtained with the `@` prefix. See [here](https://github.com/James-Yu/LaTeX-Workshop/wiki/Snippets#Handy-mathematical-helpers).

      

      

- [Shortcuts](https://github.com/James-Yu/LaTeX-Workshop/wiki/Snippets#font-commands-and-snippets)

  - In addition to snippets, there are shortcuts provided by the extension that allow you to easily format text (and one or two other things).

    

- When the current line starts with `\item` or `\item[]`, hitting `Enter` automatically adds a newline starting in the same way. For a better handling of the last item, hitting `Enter` on a line only containing `\item` or `\item[]` actually deletes the content of the line. The `alt+Enter` is bind to the standard newline command. This automatic insertion of `\item` can be deactivated by setting `latex-workshop.bind.enter.key` to `false`.

    

- [Preview on hover](https://github.com/James-Yu/LaTeX-Workshop/wiki/Hover#previewing-equations). Hovering over the start tag of a math environment causes a mathjax preview to pop up.
